To a BIS dev(configs)

[Slatts]

as happy as i am about arma 3

i must ask one question towards BIS

will configs still be in C++? or will we need a new type of config for our own addons?

i see no need to change a system that already works so well, do you?

not at all, but with physx coming in will some parts require a new type of coding?

It's probably a little too early to ask them this stuff.

Wait till the game is 1-2 months before release :)

Gotta remember that 1 year is a lot of time for BIS devs to say X and then change their mind to Y down the road.

Using C++ files for configs is actually one of best decisions BIS made with the engine. Having seen what other games do, it's easy to take a file structure that allows for inheritence for granted. And like soul assassin said, I doubt they will change it since it works so well.
